Abstract: A system deploys visualization tools, business analytics software, and big data software in a multi-instance mode on a large, coherent shared memory many-core computing system. The single machine solution provides or high performance and scalability and may be implemented remotely as a large capacity server (i.e., in the cloud) or locally to a user. Most big data software running in a single instance mode has limitations in scalability when running on a many-core and large coherent shared memory system. A configuration and deployment technique using a multi-instance approach, which also includes visualization tools and business analytics software, maximizes system performance and resource utilization, reduces latency and provides scalability as needed, for end-user applications in the cloud.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for remote rendering of computer graphics. The system includes a graphics application program resident at a remote server. The graphics application is invoked by a user or process located at a client. The invoked graphics application proceeds to issue graphics instructions. The graphics instructions are received by a remote rendering control system. Given that the client and server differ with respect to graphics context and image processing capability, the remote rendering control system modifies the graphics instructions in order to accommodate these differences. The modified graphics instructions are sent to graphics rendering resources, which produce one or more rendered images. Data representing the rendered images is written to one or more frame buffers. The remote rendering control system then reads this image data from the frame buffers. The image data is transmitted to the client for display or processing. In an embodiment of the system, the image data is compressed before being transmitted to the client. In such an embodiment, the steps of rendering, compression, and transmission can be performed asynchronously in a pipelined manner.

Abstract: A bootloader uses a TCP server to install and verify upgrades on a networked computing device such as a storage enclosure. A data management server client may connect to a bootloader on the storage enclosure using TCP. Once the connection is established, an upgrade image (upgrade data) can be provided directly to the bootloader and installed by the bootloader at the storage enclosure. The TCP server allows for the upgrade to be installed with minimal steps and a simple interface.

Abstract: A primary data storage system is connected with a separate and external active archive storage system to consolidate data and allow active archive data to be managed based on primary storage system events. The primary data storage system may be managed and maintained by an external entity, and may include a manager module such as a resource manager. The active archive system may include several tiers of storage in a hierarchical storage system and logic for moving data between and among the tiers. As data processing milestones are completed or the state of data changes, in projects stored in the primary data storage system, task milestone or state change events are detected. Event detection can trigger data movement in the active archive solution. One or more software modules implementing the present invention may detect the events and trigger active archive operations based on the events.

Abstract: An adaptive router anticipates possible future congestion and enables selection of an alternative route before the congestion occurs, thereby avoiding the congestion. The adaptive router may use a primary route until it predicts congestion will occur. The adaptive router measures packet traffic volume, such as flit volume, on a primary network interface to anticipate the congestion. The adaptive router maintains a trailing sum of the number of flits handled by the primary network interface over a trailing time period. If the sum exceeds a threshold value, the adaptive router assumes the route will become congested, and the adaptive router enables considering routing future packets, or at least the current packet, over possible secondary routes.

Abstract: A cluster of computer system nodes connected by a storage area network include two classes of nodes. The first class of nodes can act as clients or servers, while the other nodes can only be clients. The client-only nodes require much less functionality and can be more easily supported by different operating systems. To minimize the amount of data transmitted during normal operation, the server responsible for maintaining a cluster configuration database repeatedly multicasts the IP address, its incarnation number and the most recent database generation number. Each node stores this information and when a change is detected, each node can request an update of the data needed by that node. A client-only node uses the IP address of the server to connect to the server, to download the information from the cluster database required by the client-only node and to upload local disk connectivity information.

At least two of the memory block including a data storage structure for receiving as input data from a global data bus and a control logic structure including logic for determining whether data should be added to the data storage structure from the global data bus and whether any data within the data storage structure should be transferred to the output of the memory block. The data storage structure of the at least two memory blocks includes a first data input for selectively receiving data from the global data bus and a second data input for selectively receiving data from a previous memory block in the modular first-in first-out circuit.
